<p>&nbsp;Seattle says it can handle the snow this time around.&nbsp; In 2008, the city was paralyzed by a series of storms.&nbsp; Buses didn&rsquo;t run, sidewalks were caked with ice and streets weren&rsquo;t passable for more than a week.</p><p>Reports after the fact showed the city was unprepared. Snow routes weren&rsquo;t plowed.&nbsp; There was a communication breakdown between Seattle Department of Transportation and Metro Transit officials.</p><p>The city&rsquo;s poor response to the snow storm is often credited with the defeat of former Seattle Mayor Greg Nickels.</p>Tue, 09 Nov 2010 23:16:25 +0000Paula Wissel113 at http://kplu.orgSeattle Lays Out Snow Removal Plans
